If you are in TurboTax Self-employed you can add Office Space Lease Expense as follows:

  • Income & Expenses >> Self-employment Income/Expenses >> 1099-Misc, write-offs, etc.
  • Select >> Edit
  • Here's your work summary >> Line of Work >> This should show the business you set up
  • Select >> Edit
  • Here's your (Business Name) info >> Scroll down to the bottom
  • Select >>  "Add expenses for this work"
  • Tell us about any expenses for (Business Name) >> Select >> Less common expenses (at the bottom)
  • Select >> Office expenses
  • "Let's enter your other office expenses for your (Business Name) work"
  • At the bottom is a box for you to enter Office Lease and an amount.
  • You can "Add Another Row" to enter anything else you haven't previously.
  • You can also loop around again.  Business Insurance is also a "Less Common Expense"
